Agile Project Management requires some additional skills to be possessed by an Agile Project Manager. It does not only involve managerial skills but also requires more team-oriented and leadership skills.

Agile Development is a value-driven model with focus on outcomes unlike traditional approaches which are plan-driven in nature and based on output. At the same time, the centripetal force for success of the agile-based project is the agile team which executes it.

It also requires additional skills in terms of adaptability, self-organization and motivation to continuously improve.

Agile Transformation is a journey and not a process.

It is a cultural, behavioral and mindset shift from bureaucratic to pragmatic empiricism. Agile teams improve through learning, inspection and adaption which help in bringing a consistent delivery cadence in shorter and visible iterative development cycles. Support from the leadership team is a must, and the focus of agile project management should be more on the degree of adaptability instead of predictability.

Over a period of time when the team starts delivering with consistent velocity, it helps in increasing the confidence in the achievement of customer goals and defined outcomes.

Taking a position on polarizing societal issues feels very risky to most companies, with communicators and CEOs alike worried about potential public fallout.

Yet, the latest Gartner Communications research shows the majority of stakeholders respect and admire companies that are willing to speak out about polarizing issues, and are much more likely to take supportive actions as a result, such as purchasing, advocacy, and applying for employment.

In this webinar, Richard DeLisi (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner VP Advisory looks deeper into these research findings and help you navigate changing stakeholder expectations.

Discussion Topics:

  • The current state of stakeholder expectations
  • Characteristics to consider when crafting your message
  • Surprising findings on stakeholder responses and behavior
